Students Create Skeleton Art

Quincy Elementary is a signature school with an emphasis on
art, so it was no surprise when the school invited puppeteer Sunny Birklund to
the school.The New Mexico artist and
teacher helped older students create large Calavera masks or large skeleton
puppets to be used in the Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead celebration in November.The Mexican celebration centers on the
remembrance of ancestors and loved ones who have passed away. Once the masks or
puppet were finished, the students paraded around the stage in the gymnasium showing
off their creations much to the delight of the younger students in the
audience.
